such an amazing God

So I have been needing to update since Nicholas was born but I've been busy to say the least haha even now I am still in so much shock and happiness and just overwhelmed with how things have ended up that I dont know if I am even quite ready to write about my experience

But I do want to say that I have been more blessed by my pregnancy experience and labor/delivery experience than I ever thought possible--I have come to know God on such a more intimate level through all this, when I look in my baby's eyes I see the sheer strength of my God--He created this life, He sustained me, He grew Nicholas and He held us in his hand through it all

Nicholas was born at 3lbs 6.9 oz., 15.5 inches long on Wed March 3 at 12:13am--my induction began on March 1st at 9:30pm (I am working on my birth story but am still a little too emotional to get it finished lol) Nicholas scored an amazing 8 and 9 on his APGARS and came out of the womb able to regulate his own temperature, breathe on his own, cry, etc. He was 100% healthy and amazing--despite his incredibly small size he is making such incredible strides!

God has truly done a miracle in my sons life!

I will update with more details, pictures, etc. once I finally am out of my emotional, foggy-mommy brain...and yes, I know that this foggy-mommy brain can last quite some time but I promise details ARE coming
